Every time I exit Firefox and try to reopen it I get the error message that the profile is either renames or missing. I have tried deleting and reinstalling Firefox, I have tried the refresh Firefox and I have created a new profile with "firefox.exe -P". Nothing works. "firefox.exe -P" does work in that I can open Firefox, how ever as soon as I exit it looses the profile again and the only way to open it is to create a new profile with "firefox.exe -P". An interesting point to note is that none of the profiles are being renamed or moved. The are all where there suppose to be and with he correct name. After hours of research I'm at a loss as to what to do next. If you need any more info on the situation or my system specs please let me know. I am running windows 7 pro. Thank you in advance.

Yes. That is the correct file, but the profile name (Profiles/s22fw6ll.default) doesn't match the profile name kuwddskl.Default User) that shows in the other screenshot. If you still have the profile folder that start with kuw then try to replace the wrong path name with the correct profile name.

No.

Did you check the permissions of the file to make sure that you have full read and write permissions and are the owner of the file?
